    Veyron

    I guess the standard Veyron was not fast enough for this person.

    Not my choice of colour though.

      Not to rain on his parade, but did Pegaso not used to make lorries? Maybe they have gone a little more upmarket since then!

        Have you seen the guys other cars, and the fact that he lives in a 7-star hotel - permanently.

        Waaaayy to much money (if there is such a thing!)

        "the Veyron has a slightly altered interior and bears the registration plate C1."

        The guy with an A8 down the road has the reg C10

          Lol, if he gets a pay rise does that mean he rises up to say c9 or c8?

          7 star hotel at that price per night then definately has too much money. Bet he don't even drive the car at the limit.

            Im sure this is only the start of it, 1001bhp is a lot BUT bare in mind its a 8litre 16 culinder with 4 turbos that only 125bhp per litre and that not a lot really some serious skyline in japan are running 1400bhp out of a 3litre 6 cyl engine thats 465bhp per litre (i know its not that simple).
            Im quite posative we WILL se a +2000bhp veyron soon all you need is one rich buissines man with power on his mind.
            Probably the longet S2 project in history EVER!

              Lmao or some chav who's seen fast and furious one to many times.

              Have to be a bit insane to go for some really stupid power's but if people want it bad enough. Still like Charlie from PPC's rover - 1600+ of torque.

                It looks like it was parked outside the Mall of the Emirates. If the owner does indeed live in the Burj al-Arab, the colour scheme will look quite tasteful to him.
                It sounds like he has a car collection quite typical of a Dubai resident.

                    1400bhp Skylines don't have 60,000 mile warranties and full factory back up. Their engines last a couple of quarter runs. High horsepower is not brain surgery unless you can offer a proper warranty.

                    By the way, Pegaso made beautiful sports cars in the 1950s before going back to lorries and coachbuilding.

                        Do you reckon he has to carry those crowd barriers with him everywhere he goes? They must be used to stop people spontaneously vomiting over the car when they see the paint job!

                          From what I've heard, the Veyrons that are coming out of the factory now are produced with more than 1001PS as stock anyway. I guess you could think of this engine conceptually as 4x 2.0T engines strapped together, so that means each 2.0T is giving out 250PS, which isn't too shabby, but a good tuner like Mihnea could I'm sure extract a bit more than that?!
